ANNOUNCEMENT OF GRADUATE SESSIONS
ence, Science, Geography, Guidance, and Social Studies. The cur-
riculums for these programs are explained in the following pages
under the respective captions.
Admissions Policy for Graduate Study
Admission to the Graduate Study Program at Indiana is gov-
erned by the following policy which has been established by the
Graduate Council:
1. The applicant must present a Bachelor's degree from a col-
lege or university that has been accredited by the Middle
States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools or the
appropriate regional accrediting agency.
2. The applicant must present a transcript of his undergraduate
work showing a 2.5 honor point value for all four years of
his undergraduate work. The 2.5 assumes a grade of A to
have 4 honor points per credit hour, a grade of B to have 3
honor points per credit hour, and a grade of C to have 2
honor points per credit hour. If the applicant's undergrad-
uate record does not meet this 2.5 honor point value, or if
he is a graduate of an unaccredited college, he may be ad-
mitted by making a satisfactory score on an entrance quali-
fication examination.
3. The applicant must possess a Pennsylvania Teacher's Certif-
icate or its equivalent.
4. Students applying for the degree in Music Education must
present evidence of musical maturity in a formal audition
before the Graduate Committee of the Music Education
Department.
Admission to Graduate Study does not automatically mean that
the student is a candidate for the Master's degree at Indiana. Ad-
mission to candidacy for the degree may be granted only after six
or more hours of graduate work have been successfulh' completed
at Indiana.
Steps Necessary for Admission
1. The applicant will file an application for graduate work with
the Director of Graduate Studies. \\'rite to Dr. I. L. Stright.
Director of Graduate Studies, for application forms.
2. Each applicant will present a transcript of all undergraduate
work taken for the Bachelor's degree. Transcripts of pre-
vious work taken at Indiana need not be submitted.
3. Each applicant may be required to have a personal inter-
view with the Director of Graduate Studies or an assigned
faculty member.
10 GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Admission to Candidacy for the Degree
The student should complete the following steps to qualify for
admission to candidacy:
1. Submit an official application for admission to candidacy.
2. Submit a transcript of graduate work completed at other
institutions.
3. Complete at least six semester hours of graduate work at
Indiana.
4. Receive satisfactory course evaluations from the student's
graduate instructors.
5. Submit a tentative program of study for the completion of
the graduate program.
The application for admission to candidacy, the transcript of
the graduate record, and the tentative program of study should be
submitted by the student to the Director of Graduate Studies. Ac-
ceptance to candidacy requires the appro\'al of the Director of
Graduate Studies.
Semester Hours Required
A minimum of thirty semester hours of approved graduate work
beyond a Bachelor's degree is required. A student who is teaching
full time will be limited to four semester hours of work per semester.
The number of semester hours obtained during summer sessions
shall not exceed the number of weeks of attendance.
Time Limit
Thirty semester hours must be completed within the five-year
period immediately preceding the date when all the requirements
for the degree are completed. For justifiable reasons the Graduate
Council may extend this period.
Residence
A minimum of ten semester hours will be required to be taken
during summer sessions. Courses taken prior to September, 1957. at
Indiana State College may not be used as graduate work.
Scholarship Requirement
A candidate must have maintained a grade point average of 3.0
(B), in all work taken after receiving the Bachelor's degree. Only
grades of "A", "B", or "C" are acceptable toward a Master's degree.
Marking system: grade of "A". 4 quality points; "B". 3 qualit\-
points; "C", 2 quality points.
Permanent Certification Requirements
By action of the State Council on Education, all college certif-
icates issued after October 1, 1959, will require the completion of
a.\.\oi'.\c;i:ment ok graduate sessions ii
at least twcKe hours oF post-baccalaureate work for permanent
certification. The plan of the State Council is that after October 1.
1961, the requirement will be eighteen hours of post-baccalaureate
work. The projected plan is that this requirement will, within the
next few years, be increased to thirty semester hours of post-
baccalaureate work to make a college teaching certificate per-
manent. Many states have already gone this far in their require-
ments for a permanent teaching certificate.
Certainly all teachers who are able to qualify for admission to
a graduate program and who are able to profit by graduate work
should be encouraged to do the six to thirty hours in a graduate*
program and to qualify for an earned Master's degree.
When to Apply for Admission
Application forms for admission may be obtained from the
Ciraduate Office. Applicants are urged to complete the necessary
steps for admission as soon as possible. Write to Dr. I. L. Stright,
Director of Graduate Studies, State College, Indiana, Pennsylvania.
Scholarships
The Board of Trustees of the Indiana State College has au-
thorized the college Loan and Scholarship Committee to divert
some scholarship aid to meritorious graduate students. The follow-
ing suggestions have been presented by the Loan and Scholarship
Committee:
1. For the present that one $50.00 scholarship be awarded each
semester to that graduate student who best merits the award.
2. Three members of the Graduate Council serve as a commit-
tee to recommend the recipient to the Loan and Scholarship Com-
mittee.
3. Nominations for the award be made to the committee by the
Director of Graduate Studies.
4. To be eligible for nomination the student must have com-
pleted twelve semester hours of graduate work at Indiana and be an
approved candidate for the Master of Education degree at Indiana.
Undergraduate Summer Program
Indiana State College maintains a comprehensive program of
undergraduate instruction throughout the summer. Detailed infor-
mation on the undergraduate program may be obtained by writing
to the Dean of Instruction for the undergraduate Summer School
Bulletin.
Veterans
Indiana is approved to offer training under the Korean G.I. Bill
( Public Law 550 ) and Public Law 894 (disabled Korean veterans ) .
12 GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Students who are entitled to training under one of these bills should
contact the Veterans Counselor immediately after being accepted
for admission to Indiana. The Office of the Veterans Counselor is
in Room 101, Whitmyre Hall.

credit may enroll as auditors. Course fees are the same as those
required of persons enrolled for credit.
Housing Facilities
Room reservations can be made by writing to the Dean of
Women. An advance registration deposit will not be required to
reserve a room for summer sessions.
Students are not expected to room alone. Therefore, prospec-
tive students are urged to apply in pairs. In this way each student
is assured a congenial roommate. Single applications are handled
to the best possible advantage, but the college prefers tliat students
make their own choices whenever possible. Applications for rooms
are filed in the order in which they are received. Students are re-
quested to write to the Dean of Women if there is any preference
in rooms, and to indicate whether a room with or without water is
desired. The college will give preferences to those whose reserva-
tion deposit has been paid in advance.
Men in the Indiana Graduate Program who desire housing
facilities for the summer should write for information and reserva-
tions to the Dean of Men. All housing arrangements should be cared
for as early as possible.
The housing fee, which includes room, board, and laundry, is
$16.00 per week.
Transfer of Credit
Six semester hours of graduate work taken at another accredited
graduate school may be transferred to the Indiana Master's Degree
Program. In all cases a request for transfer of credit must have ap-
proval of the Credit Evaluation Committee established by the
Graduate Council.

pears in the beginning of this bulletin. Each graduate student also
must submit to the Graduate Office a program of courses for ap-
proval for any given semester or summer session in adxance of the
time specified for registration and payment of fees.
GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Curriculum for Master of Education Degree
"The education of a teacher needs to be seen as a whole, for it
is the final product which is important rather than the content of
any one stage. The aim of the process is to produce men and women
whose intellectual and cultural backgrounds are broad and deep,
who know the material they are to teach and who can present it
skillfull)". The balance among the three factors in the objectives of
a particular graduate student's program will vary with the can-
didate's previous background and to some extent in view of the age
group and subjects he will teach, but none of the three may be
neglected."'
In each of the several programs leading to the Vlaster's degree
at Indiana, the student takes work in four categories. In the first
category he must take at least 14 hours and may do up to 22 hours
in Content Courses in the particular program in which he is work-
ing. In the Content Courses the student is expected to enrich and
increase his knowledge in his subject area field.
The second is entitled Professional Studies in which he must
complete from 4 to 10 hours of work. The work in this area is de-
signed to supplement the Professional Studies of his undergraduate
program and to increase the student's general knowledge of the
teaching-learning process and of basic professional problems.
In the third place, all students must take at least one course
in the area of Foundations of Education. Courses in this area are
designed to help the student realize the important place of public
education in America.
In the fourth area every student must complete the course en-
titled Elements of Research. Research plays an important part to
the graduate student in any of the Indiana programs. The research
training should enable the student to acquire the techniques of re-
search as well as to be able to interpret and comprehend current
research as it is applied to a teacher's particular position.
Objectives and Philosophy of the Graduate Program
The primary purposes of the Graduate Program at Indiana,
which leads to the degree of Master of Education, are to increase
the competence of the general classroom teacher; to stimulate a
greater awareness of educational philosophies and problems in
order that teachers may assume more responsible roles in the edu-
cational program of their communities; and to provide an incentive
for continued professional growth. Probably the principal char-
acteristic of the Indiana Graduate Program is its primary objective
—to help good teachers become better teachers.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF GRADUATE SESSIONS 27
Research Requirements for the Degree
The candidate for the Master of Education degree at Inchana
must satisf)' tlie research re(|uirements as estabHshed by tlie (Grad-
uate Council. He has a choice of writing a thesis on a problem of
his particular interest for which two to four hours of graduate credit
may be given. It is thus possible for him to complete the require-
ments for the degree by doing twenty-six semester hours in course
work plus a four-hour thesis. If he elects not to write a thesis, he
then must complete thirty semester hours in courses and in addition
must fulfill i\\c research recpiirement by preparing a research
proj(X't.
The Thesis
After filing application for admission to candidacy for the
degree, the candidate must then file a research option form in which
he indicates his choice of doing a Master's degree thesis or the
research project. If he elects to do a thesis he must prepare an out-
line of the proposed thesis including the identification of the prob-
lem which he proposes to investigate, his proposed procedures for
carrying out the investigation, and the manner in which he expects
to interpret the results. This is then taken to a member of the grad-
uate facult)' selected by the candidate with the approval of the Di-
rector of Graduate Studies. The member of the graduate faculty
selected will serve as the candidate's adviser and chairman of the
thesis committee. In addition to the adviser, the thesis committee
consists of the department chairman in the student's field, the co-
ordinator of research, and other members of the graduate faculty.
This committee meets with the candidate, studies the proposed
problem and approves or disapproves the thesis. If approval is
given, the committee indicates the number of credit hoius to be
given.
The Professional Project
For those who do not do a thesis the professional project is an
important part of the Master's degree program offered by Indiana
State College. This feature of the graduate program gives the stu-
dent an opportunity to demonstrate his professional competence
in a practical situation while teaching or in a laboratory situation
while in residence. The purpose of the professional project is to
influence and improve school practice and procedures.
The student is encouraged to select some area in a school situa-
tion which needs study and improvement. For those in the field,
the project should be developed and put into practice, so that con-
crete and measurable results may be obtained.
For those not teaching at the time, the project should demon-
strate the ability of the student to select, organize, and present the
r(\sults of professional investigation in an area of major interest.
GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Before it is officially undertaken, the project must be planned
with the candidate's adviser, and the plan must be formally ap-
proved by the Director of Research, the adviser, and the Director
of Graduate Studies.
Guidelines to students for completing a professional project:
1. Course in "Elements of Research": While taking this course
the student should decide whether he elects to do a thesis for credit
or a professional project. In this course he should formulate his
ideas on the selection of a topic. He should learn how to use
research materials, to prepare a project outline, and to understand
the nature of the formal written report.
2. Plan for the project: The choice of topic and plan of the
project should be \\ orked out in consultation with the student's ad-
viser. The student should present, in outline form, a "Research
Proposal."
3. The student secures approval of the plan from the Director
of Research, the adviser, and the Director of Graduate Studies.
4. The student should attend any seminars which deal with the
preparation of a thesis or research project.
5. The student should begin to write the report of his project
as soon as possible. Rough drafts should be submitted to the adviser
for correction and suggestions. The student should follow Camp-
bell's "Form and Style in Thesis Writing."
6. Acceptance of project: Four copies of the final project should
be submitted, through the adviser, to the Director of Graduate
Studies. Final acceptance rests with a graduate committee and the
Director of Graduate Studies.
An acceptable project should show evidence that the candidate:
1. Has comprehended the essentials of his problem, has fol-
lowed a well organized plan of work, and has presented satisfactory-
solutions.
2. Has made an independent and intensive study of his prob-
lem.
3. Has made a comprehensive studv of the literature in his
field.
4. Has shown a command of effective and fluent English with
the abilit)' to write in a professional st\de.
5. Has reached conclusions and recommendations that are
justified by his findings and experiences.
6. Has a practical working knowledge of research procedures.
7. Has produced a project of definite value to the educational
profession.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF GRADUATE SESSIONS 29
Final Conference
After the student has submitted a final thaft ot his thesis or
research project, a final conference is held at which time the student
has the opportunity to orally present the results of his thesis or
research project. In the case of a thesis, members of this confer-
ence are the student's thesis committee. For the research project,
the final conference is conducted by the student's adviser plus two
or three other members of the graduate facult\' named by the Di-
rector of Graduate Studies.
Deadline Dates for Final Drafts
Students who expect to receive the Master's degree at the Jan-
uary Commencement should file the final draft of their research
projct or thesis not later than December 1. For those who expect to
receive the degree at the May Commencement, the final drafts
must be submitted by April 1. Those expecting to graduate in Au-
gust must submit their final drafts by July 15.
The Advisory System
The purpose of the ad\dsory system is to insure that the stu-
dent's \\'ork follows a coherent, well-balanced, and imified program
for his professional growth and development. The advisory respon-
sibility falls into two parts:
1. Prior to admission to candidacy: At this stage the advisory
function is essentially the responsibilitx' of the Director of Graduate
Studies and includes the following:
a. To assist the student in preparing his plan of graduate
study.
b. To recommend the student for admission to candidacy
upon completion of the necessary requirements.
c. To aid the student in the selection of an adviser for com-
pletion of degree requirements after he is accepted for
candidacy.
d. To encourage the student to attend seminars for the dis-
cussion of the nature of the graduate program.
2. After acceptance of candidate for the degree: The graduate
student will be assigned, or may choose with the approval of the
Director of Graduate Studies, a faculty- ad\iser to assist him in his
graduate work. Xecessary changes in ad\isers may be made at the
discretion of the Director of Graduate Studies. This adviser should
be competent in the student's area of specialization, as his primary
responsibility is to assist the student in choosing, preparing, and
presenting his thesis or project in oral and written form as a demon-
stration of professional competence.
